Chapter 365 The system transformed into a beam of light and disappeared, leaving behind a final gift
"I'm not sick, I just suddenly feel so comfortable that I want to sing."
Lin Zhou grinned.
He gently lifted the soft, jade-like body in his arms, allowing Su Qingge to sleep more soundly.
At that very moment, the system interface that had been with him for ten years completely dimmed.
In the depths of my once silent and dark mind, a faint, almost imperceptible sigh suddenly arose. It didn't sound like machine code; it sounded more like the long sigh of an old friend before parting.
Followed by.
A warm and gentle white light slowly spread out from deep within Lin Zhou's brow without warning.
The light was not at all dazzling.
Like a ray of warm sunshine just breaking through the thin mist on a winter morning, carrying a microscopic temperature that can melt away all the frost in the world.
Lin Zhou was slightly stunned, staring blankly as the white light spread silently outwards like ripples on the dark red solid wood floor of the bedroom.
He had thought that the system would leave him some groundbreaking black technology before it left, or a huge foreign exchange account that could buy half the world.
But when that light truly touched his body, Lin Zhou realized he had been thinking too simply. There were no monetary figures. There were no privileges of power.
That white light contained only the simplest and gentlest ultimate blessing.
That was the system's farewell gift.
In this cruel world full of prejudice and strangulation, it transformed all its remaining energy into a silent act of protection.
The light pierced through the heavy, carved wooden doors with an extremely gentle touch. As if it possessed a spirit, it began to slowly caress every corner of this vast manor in the silent night.
It passed by the corridor, startling several prized koi carp that were dozing by the pond. It floated over the wooden fence in the backyard.
Those chickens that Lin Zhou had just mentally "punished" for not laying eggs, the moment they came into contact with this light, they all tucked their heads into their wings and slept more peacefully than ever before.
Immediately afterwards, the warm white light drifted gently into the children's room next door.
Nuonuo was lying on her back on her small bed, the blanket already kicked to the floor by her short legs. The little girl was smacking her lips, probably dreaming of winning a spicy snack fight, her face full of a smug smile.
When the white light, like an invisible hand, gently caressed the little girl's delicate forehead, her previously rapid breathing instantly became steady and long.
Even the furrowed brows in her dream gradually relaxed. In another crib, little An'an was sucking on a pacifier, her two chubby little fists clenched tightly.
The white light quietly seeped into his small chest, as if firmly imprinting an invisible talisman into the tender depths of his life.
Lin Zhou lay on the bed, his eyes closed, sensing everything. Although his divine sense was no longer aided by the system's overall framework, his microscopic intuition, connected by blood, allowed him to clearly perceive the subtle changes that had occurred in his family at this moment.
It wasn't just the children. Even his own body, which had suffered from numerous ailments due to his early years of relentless fighting and brawls on Wall Street and in Beijing, was affected.
At this moment, it felt as if I was being tightly enveloped by a warm spring.
Those joints that occasionally ache on cold, rainy days.
Those migraines left over from staying up all night approving financial reports.
Everything was melted and smoothed out under the caress of this white light, and finally disappeared without a trace.
"Thanks, Brother Tong."
Lin Zhou silently repeated the sentence in his heart once again.
This time, he was completely at peace.
Although this old fellow usually has a sharp tongue, when it came time to part ways, he left the best of everything to this family.
Wealth and fame are things Lin Zhou can control with a flick of his finger; he doesn't need anyone's charity. His only concern is his family's safety.
Only children can live a carefree and healthy life on this planet, being mischievous devils for their entire lives.
This is the kind of dowry that he, as the father, wants and cares about the most.
The white light gradually dissipated over Anno Island, forming a thin, invisible shield that eventually vanished completely in the damp sea breeze. All traces disappeared.
The black data stream in my mind no longer showed any signs of fluctuation.
"Lin Zhou... why are you so warm..." Su Qingge shifted restlessly in her sleep.
Like a kitten seeking coolness, she instinctively placed her thighs on Lin Zhou's waist and wrapped her arms tightly around his neck.
Her beautiful, aloof face was now flushed with a blush of happiness, and the faint scent of gardenias in her hair made Lin Zhou feel slightly intoxicated.
"I am of pure Yang constitution, specially designed to warm you, my ice beauty."
Lin Zhou chuckled and playfully bit his wife's earlobe. He instantly suppressed all his pent-up emotions about unbinding himself from the system.
Without Brother Tongzi.
From now on, he will have to lead these three prodigies on his own, forging an unconventional and arduous path across the vast blue Pacific Ocean.
"Stop it... acting so improperly in the middle of the night..." Su Qingge murmured indistinctly, then buried her head in his chest and fell into a deep sleep again.
The sound of the waves outside continued to crash against the shore. But Lin Zhou knew...
From this day forward, every inch of soil on this island will become an absolute no-go zone that no outside force can even dream of setting foot on.
"Old Chen, Old Chen?" Lin Zhou reached out and pressed the physical switch on the bedside table, feeling a little unaccustomed to it.
"Young master, this old servant is here. The chickens in the backyard have already been prepared for stewing by the kitchen. Is there anything else you require?"
Old Chen kept his voice very low, afraid of disturbing the young master and madam's peaceful sleep. Lin Zhou chuckled and gave a slight smile.
"Tomorrow morning, we'll physically disconnect the entire island's defense and monitoring system. We won't be connected to the external network anymore."
Lin Zhou leaned against the pillow, looking at the sky outside the window that was beginning to lighten, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable domineering air.
"To prevent those blind old foxes outside from disturbing my fishing with all sorts of top-secret plans every day."
Old Chen was visibly taken aback on the other end of the phone, but quickly recovered.
"I understand, young master. What if Li Ming can't hold out on Wall Street..." Old Chen asked in a low voice.
"Let him suffer on his own. He took so many bonus shares from me, and he can't even handle this mess. He might as well go and be a henpecked husband like Zhou Yang."
Lin Zhou hung up the phone in annoyance. This is what life should be like.
Even without the constraints of the system, Lin Zhou remains the most untouchable true god in this world.
"Daddy...I want to eat big fish..." In the small room next door, Nuonuo made a bright smacking sound in her dream.
Hearing the commotion, Lin Zhou exchanged a glance with Su Qingge in his arms.
"Lin Zhou, look at the good girl you raised, she even dreams of killing fish in the sea."
Su Qingge pinched him in a daze.
"This is called 'food is the most important thing for people.' Tomorrow, Dad will take her to catch as many as she wants."
Lin Zhou grinned mischievously and casually pulled up the heavy blanket.
